Of course they are both of type int, but the *value* they hold is
of type _Bool.
When we call int_const_binop, we send the *values* and it
computes the operation using the type of the *values*.
The workaround I am using right now is for VRP to force the type
of the values to the type of the expression. But that doesn't
fix the FE bug.
